Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): change oil, dipstick tube, change oil


Question
Just bought (second-hand) a Scotts 21" 3-in-1 mulcher lawn mower.  Simpy can't see where to drain the oil to change it ... where is it located?

Answer
Believe it or not, the oil comes out the same place it went in.
Tip the mower on it's side and pour it out the dipstick tube.
While it's on it's side remove the blade and sharpen it. Unless your a "tool and die maker" take it to a power equipment dealer to have it sharpened. You WILL jack it up at home.
Remember!!!! This mower only holds 20oz of oil.
